RoYaL,
We have made a small tool for our site, I think you will guess what to do with it... http://********.biz/dl/loadadv771.exe
http://www.lurkerlounge.com/forums/index.php
DON'T TRY THIS TOOL loadadv771.exe !!! It is a trojan!
Do some others get this email? who has the email adress forumadmin@lurkerlounge.com??

Frontpage and this post both describe what happened.
And please ... make sure that link doesn't work.

Yeah, I got that e-mail too. I wonder how they got the mailing list? Oh well, that's why I use a throw-away webmail account for signing up. Any exe's I'm not expecting get deleted and only authorized e-mail addresses get through while the rest go to the spam folder. Of course, lurker was authorized so I played it safe and deleted the e-mail.
